new hard drive



Yo-

I just got a new hdd and I am having trouble with lilo.  I have installed
win95 on this drive which is currently  located as master on the primary
controller with the debian drive on slave.  With the lilo.conf shown below
my system gets to the LILO prompt, and I can press TAB and see both linux
and win but if I choose "win" lilo runs again and then boots linux.

boot=/dev/hda1
root=/dev/hdb1
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
append="mem=96m"
read-only

other=/dev/hda1
label=win
table=/dev/hda

That's it.  I have making root=/dev/hdb1 but then I get an error message
from lilo that says, "Warning /dev/hdb is not on the first disk!"

In summary, /dev/hda --> Win95
	    /dev/hdb --> Debian
	    /dev/hdc --> CD-ROM

Any help greatly appreciated!
